Jose Mourinho ready to sell Manchester United pair in January - but Alexis Sanchez is going nowhere

There are growing concerns that Sanchez was a costly mistake by the club

Jose Mourinho, the Manchester United administrator, is set up to capitalize on Eric Bailly and Marcos Rojo in an offer to get another middle half in January yet the club and Alexis Sanchez fear they are screwed over thanks to one another. 

Mourinho's proceeding with fights came as Nicky Butt, the leader of United's foundation, conceded the far reaching 3-1 derby thrashing to Manchester City on Sunday had given another chilling notice of exactly how a long ways behind their neighborhood matches the club had fallen. 

The misfortune left United mulling in eighth, 12 behind pioneers City, seven uncontrolled of the best four and with a negative objective contrast, and Butt, an individual from United's 1998/99 treble winning side, left Mourinho and the club's chain of command under no hallucinations about the difficulties they confront going ahead. 

"I think from time to time you come up against a group that are too bravo," Butt told the universal player care meeting in London on Monday in a real to life affirmation about City's matchless quality. "Once in a while you must hold your hands up and say they are a superior group than us, preferred players over us, too useful for each group in the Premier League to be straightforward, and they are comparable to any group in Europe. 

Eric Bailly has fallen out of favour with Mourinho and could be sold in January

"For Man Utd now, we have a test on to return to where we need to be, which is the greatest club in the nation, and furthermore in the city. With the goal that challenge is there for the proprietors, the board, the director and the club when all is said in done to be the place we need to be. What's more, to be completely forthright, we have a test staring us in the face to arrive." 

Mourinho needs to sign a focal safeguard in January, with Inter's Milan Skriniar and Toby Alderweireld, of Tottenham, among the choices, and he is accepted to will offload Bailly, notwithstanding Rojo, in the event that it supports his prospects of doing as such after a mid year in which his middle half targets were vetoed. 

Joined have kept one clean sheet in 12 alliance recreations and just the last three and Burnley have surrendered more than the 21 objectives the Manchester club have delivered. 

Regardless of whether United would endorse the offer of Bailly - who was Mourinho's first marking in 2016 and is just 24 - is misty. Mourinho's desire to offer Anthony Martial in the late spring was rejected and the Frenchman has since come back to shape and support under the director. 

Be that as it may, Bailly's fortunes under Mourinho have dove since the finish of last season and he is currently attempting to try and make United's 18-man squad for matches and concerned he has lost the administrator's trust.
